R.I.P. Fabulous Moolah

I guess it has been a few weeks since I’ve written one of these and sadly that means it was time for the wrestling world to lose another one of its great performers. The Fabulous Moolah passed away.

Moolah did more for women’s wrestling than anyone before or after her did and is from a time when women wrestlers could, you know, actually work and weren’t just there because they were nothing more than a pair of tits and a nice ass.
